Belgian-born Diane Von Furstenberg was profiled yesterday in the New York Times as an example of a fashion designer who is actually doing well despite the economic downturn. Furstenberg has been a major figure in American fashion design for nearly four decades. Her designs are worn by famous women like Jessica Alba, Madonna and Jennifer Lopez. Von Furstenberg gave some common sense advice in the interview that is worth repeating: �It�s more important than ever to have confidence. Everyone else is insecure. If you start to take a little bit of everyone else�s insecurity � forget it.�

Bush Struggles With Pelosi and Reid (http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/B/BUSH_PELOSI_REID?SITE=AZTUC&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT) By BEN FELLER Associated Press Writer, Jul 7
Ben Feller covers the White House for The Associated Press.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- When President Bush invited lawmakers for a picnic, an approaching storm threatened to derail the event. His spokesman, Tony Snow, suggested that Democratic leaders in Congress secretly wanted it that way.
"They've been seeding the clouds," he said.
A little joke, a little suspicion. It seemed appropriate for Bush's relationship with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
In public, there are promises to work together, then unmistakable acrimony. Private dealings are respectful, but not fully trustful.
Where ill will seeps out between Bush and the two Democratic leaders, it is not based on personal animus, those close to them say. Rather, it is rooted in vastly different views of how to run the country, and how much say each side has in running it.
Pelosi and Reid say Bush blithely dismisses their roles as leaders of a coequal branch of government; Bush says they overreach and meddle, never more so than in the case of the war in Iraq.
How well they get along, a fascination in Washington, is important in a much broader sense: It affects what they get done for the country.
On that front, progress has been slow during the first half-year of this divided government.
Bush and Democratic leaders agreed on new trade-policy guidelines, but Congress later refused to renew his fast-track trade power. Bush vetoed the Democrats' bid to expand stem cell research, a move that Reid and Pelosi called deplorable.
The president's immigration overhaul is dead. A potential energy agreement looks shaky at best. Bush is also in a worsening standoff with Congress over the firing of U.S. attorneys, and a huge fight is brewing over the main spending bills that keep the government in operation.
And, of course, there's the war.
"It's hard to know how they would get along without Iraq," said Charles Jones, who studies relations between Congress and the president as a nonresident senior fellow for The Brookings Institution.
"There are some issues on which they would probably work pretty effectively together, but the overlay of Iraq and the intense conflicts spills over," Jones said. "It makes it difficult for them just to say, 'Well, let's forget Iraq and work nicely on other issues.'"
The White House disputes that spillover, citing quiet negotiations taking place to renew Bush's education law and work with Democrats on the immigration legislation. The immigration bill died when conservatives in Bush's own party rebelled against it.
Iraq may be the better test case of Bush's relationship with Reid and Pelosi.
It took more than three months for Bush and Congress to agree on a war funding bill, gobbling up valuable and finite legislative time.
Bush vetoed the Democrats' first try because it included a timeline for U.S. troop withdrawal. Then came a grim meeting in which Bush, Pelosi and Reid chose negotiators but got little else done.
In the days that followed, Pelosi miffed the White House by holding a vote to pay for the war in stages, drawing another veto threat. Another negotiation session broke down.
Ultimately, hemmed in by time, both sides had to give or risk the political catastrophe of leaving combat troops unfunded.
So Democrats gave up the timeline for withdrawal. Bush agreed to add domestic spending to the bill and establish benchmarks for measuring progress in Iraq.
"The vote showed what's possible when we work together," the president said.
The reality is that the compromise was forced upon them all, because no one wanted to cut off money for the troops.
Still, quietly, some trust built through the experience. Bush's chief of staff, Josh Bolten, appreciated that Reid kept his word during negotiations; Reid respected that no details leaked from those private talks. He now says that Bush is listening more, but only compared with zero cooperation in prior years.
Bush's tendency has never been to engage Congress, said James Thurber, director of the Center for Congressional and Presidential Studies at American University.
"He doesn't have a close relationship with either one of them," Thurber said, referring to Pelosi and Reid. "I think that makes a difference. I don't see any evidence that he has come around to engaging the opposition party the way (Bill) Clinton did."
Bush, Reid and Pelosi all dismiss the idea that they don't like one another despite the constant public harping.
When the cameras are off, the tone is different, said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky, who has sat with Reid and Pelosi in private sessions with Bush.
"It's not an acrimonious kind of thing," McConnell said. "In all the meetings I've been in, there's never been a lack of courtesy. I don't think there's anything personal. We are just in different places. Everybody fully understands that we have different agendas."

Tam Ngoc Tran died on May 16th in a car accident. She was a doctoral student in American Civilization at Brown University. I had a brief encounter with this intelligent and lovely young lady in 2006 when I visited UCLA to assist foreign-born students in finding solutions to their immigration problems. Each of the students told me his or her story. Most shared the following themes: They were born in other countries and brought to the U.S. as toddlers. They grew up believing that they were born in the U.S. and that if they studied hard and got good grades,...

Hello,
Is there a limit of time a GC holder can remain unemployed if GC obtained through employment and will that have a negative impact on the naturalization process?
Thank you

In a post last summer ("The Immigration Singularity"), I accused the Department of State (DOS) of hoodwinking the Office of Management and Budget by getting OMB to approve use of a new, all-purpose nonimmigrant visa application form, the DS-160, without submitting the form itself for review under the Paperwork Reduction Act: In my view, State snookered OMB in approving the release of the DS-160 under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) without providing the public with access to a complete copy of the form and all the questions posed. The purpose of the PRA is to reduce the burden of completing...

Ok, winter is winding up and summer is here..:):)
There is going to be lots of Indian cultural festivals/Independence day celebrations etc, etc... many opportunities to meet many EB immigrants in these festivals....I have lived in Texas and easily 10k people go to Anand Bazaar (India�s Independence day celebrations)
If all the State chapters co-ordinate a membership campaign, it will be a great success...We should aim at 100k count by this fall..
CAN WE DO IT, let me hear a big YESSSSS ?
We have to come out with a nice one page IV brochure, probably printed in a press in recycled paper (cheaper/good for environment) and circulate in all these functions /festivals. The brochure should explain who we are/what we do/what we have achieved so far(lot), and how EB immigrants will get immense benefit from our forums etc etc...

Senators Richard Lugar (R-IN) and John Kerry (D-MA) have introduced the StartUp Visa Act of 2010. According to Senator Lugar's office: Senators John Kerry (D-Mass.) and Richard Lugar (R-Ind.), the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, today introduced legislation to drive job creation and increase America�s global competiveness by helping immigrant entrepreneurs secure visas to the United States. The StartUp Visa Act of 2010 will allow an immigrant entrepreneur to receive a two year visa if he or she can show that a qualified U.S. investor is willing to dedicate a significant sum � a minimum...

the format of employment date should be "mm/dd/yyyy", or just 'mm/yyyy'?
my last day in my previous employer was a Friday 5/15/2009 and my attorney entered 5/17/2009 (Sunday) as my last day on the LCA coz my first day in my current employer was 5/18/2009.
I am asking my former co-workers to write experience letter for me. Should I let them write '5/15/2009', or '5/17/2009' or just '5/2009' on the letters?
Thanks!

I came in 2003 on an H4 visa with my parents who were on H1B, I was 17 yrs old at that time. I then got my status changed to an F1 in 2004. I completed my bachelors and have been accepted into a masters program on a scholarship. I wanted to visit India, however I would like to know the risk involved in doing so. Would I still be at risk of not getting a f1 VISA in India even if I carry my approved F1 petition? Please advise..Thanks..

I am a July 2007 filer. I filed for I-485 using the old fee structure and also applied for AP in July 2007. My AP got approved in 07 but expired so I had to apply for AP in Aug 2008. So I filed in Aug 2008 and paid $305 for AP fee. Now it's to reapply for AP as it expires soon; however I was under the impression that I wouldn't have to pay for AP fee again. I sent the forms to USCIS but the AP package got returned as they claim i don't qualify for free fling.
Anyone else in this position (I am assuming a lot of you guys are... please share your experience). Do we have to pay every year for AP?
Thanks!
